It should be a Roubaix SL4 Disc, I had the same one a couple of years ago, 2015 of I’m not mistaken. Not sure about the asking price, but it was a very comfortable bike especially on long rides. The only thing I didn’t like was the limited tire clearance, I think officially up to 30c
Buying a road bike second hand is always a bit dodgy. You should always check for damage to the frame. Corrosion, stripped bolts, etc. Are the components still intact? Wear on the crank, is the rd straight. Are the brake pads worn. It’s hard to determine the true value of a bike over the internet without seeing it in person Why not ask the seller what version of bike it is?
That is a Sirrus sport disc converted to dropbars or a Specialized Secteur Expert Disc. Either 8 or 10 years old. In 2024 I wouldn’t buy 10 year old tech as my first bike, when you can get modern geometry of the last 2-3 years used for 200-300 more.
Edit: I_Piccini is right
